squeaks

You know you need to get out more when....


a. you go on a hike with your in laws and start cracking yourself up by walking like Mr. Peanut.

b. you start typing your blog and crack yourself up thinking about walking like Mr. Peanut.

c. the highlight of your weekend is fixing the squeaks in your floor

d. All of the above


So the in laws left yesterday. I finally got to the gym yesterday after nearly a week and a half. It felt great to move my body again, but I think I'm on the edge of a cold, and I pushed a little too hard and felt crummy later in the afternoon. Michael and I "celebrated" having our space back by fixing the speaks in our floor. We had purchased a floor-squeak removal kit a few weeks ago, and with his folks gone, finally had the time to move all the furniture out of the room we started on. This thing really works! You end up finding the floor joists and putting in these screws that snap off just under the carpet so the plywood is re-attached to the floor joists. I can't tell you how exciting it is to walk on the floor and have it NOT sound like you'll fall through the floor!


I'm working hard to get out more, and will be going out with my best girl Dol tomorrow to celebrate her b'day. I haven't been up for blogging much lately, but will try to come up with topics that are of more interest than cracking myself up.
